The 90s were a TIME to be Black and be in film. And a lot of us were raised by the content from this film. It was also a moment for relevance, connectivity, and realizing that the spectrum of Blackness was a lot closer together than we may have realized. Set It Off? Above the Rim? Friday? New Jack City? Black folks were living on the silver screen.

In this episode, Dalin and AJ dive into the subject of 4 movies from the 90s - Boomerang, Soul Food, Bad Boys, and Love & Basketball - that influenced their relationships with the culture and how it cultivated who they became as adults. They'll also talk about the relevance these films may have today. So grab that popcorn, chocolate of your choice, and extra large icee (go to the bathroom first) because Battle Fatigue is taking you to the movies!

At Battle Fatigue’s core, finding reasons for joy and laughter amongst the madness is key. And today’s history re-telling is no different. Prepare yourself for a wild ride and very true story. In this episode, AJ regales us with the story of what happens when a counterfeit prodigy, a big bad with Thanos vibes, a relentless secret service agent (think Tommy Lee Jones in U.S. Marshals), and a smooth talking informant get together for an insane plot with more twists than a pretzel factory! Oh, what’s the plot? 

To steal Abe Lincoln’s body.

Join a fully-invested Dalin as he tries to keep up with everything going on in an episode we call: Counterfeit Lincoln! 

In this episode of Battle Fatigue, AJ and Dalin slow things down for a second for a check-in with each other. The world is literally going to hell in a daisy-painted handbasket and the duo wants to chill and process some of the major moments happening around us, together. If you are feeling overwhelmed or unmoored and need something to help give you words that make you feel like, “yup, I felt that too,” join these best friends for a very honest check in.
